Edgy, huh?

Pet Semetary is a shit novel.

Shit, I'd watch that.

My biggest problem with that whole battle is Wun Wun is kind of a plot hole. I kept thinking "Why doesn't that giant just take a little running leap and land on as many of those fuckers as he can?" I mean, shit, he could've crushed half a dozen rows and broken the line. Silly.

Fuckin' great song, that.

Cool. I know the fans are out there - he's obviously a very succeful writer - but I've never met any. What's your favorite of his? I also like David Mitchell quite a bit for (I think) similar reasons.

Anything by William Gibson, but especially the Blue Ant Trilogy. I don't personally know a single other person who has read any of these books (not even my writer friend whose taste in fiction generally aligns perfectly with mine), and when I find myself trying to explain what they're about to anyone unfamiliar with…

I remember reading a review of my first Morrissey concert written by some music critic for the Post or the Chronicle and being outraged at what she'd written. As I got older and expanded my frame of reference for concerts I realized that she had been…

Well, as someone who tried to read the books and couldn't get past the horrible prose, I'd have to agree with you.

The Boy With The Thorn In His Pants?

Nothing solo-era Morrissey did was "explosive" as near as I can tell. His live performances seemed to consist of a series of half-hearted mic chord twirls and three or four shirt changes. Loved his music, but his live performances were among the lamest I've seen.

Some.

You might consider heeding your own advice.

Exactly why I visit this site. Bravo.

Fuck me. GREAT article!

Sort of like a lama. But uglier.

I can see myself getting to a point of fatigue, but Because most of us thought we'd never see another Star Wars movie (not to mention what seemed like an eternity between ROTJ and TPM), I think it's going to take a while longer.
